Ultrasport Abdominal Trainer Ultra 150 Power AB Trainer, Muscle Trainer with Knee Pad, Foldable Fitness Device with Training Computer, 4-Way Adjustable, Targeted ab Training

Good Product

I purchased this trainer while it was on offer at £54 having spent a long time tracking these products. This model was the slightly updated version of the product I believe. The concern for me before buying one of these machines was the weight limit advised of 100kg. It seems all the similar products also have this weight limit, and with my frame topping 117kg I was a little unsure as to whether I should risk the buy, but at the price I thought it would be a reasonable punt. Assembly is very straighforward and all tools are provided, and the build quality is good - Sturdy steel square tubing, and strong looking tube tracks for the knee roller to slide up and down. It is comfortable to use - The knee pads are suitably chunky and the elbow pads are dense foam. The first few uses highlighted how out of shape I was in the abdominal department (though I did have a base level of abdominal strength from working out some years ago) - It was hard work to do 15 reps on the easy setting! However, perserverance is required,( though you should definitely stop on whatever rep you are on if it hurts too much!) and over a few days reps or sets can be gradually increased. I use it once a day as part of an exercise program, currently doing 5 sets of 30 reps, and you can feel this thing working, especially in the lower abdominal area. As mentioned before, I am overweight for this item, and I would say that the point under most strain would be the hand grip bars - They take a lot of the weight during the workout - so I will keep my eye on the welded joint for these - So far though, it is standing up to the strain. The downside for this product is there is no information or recommendations for workout regimes - You just have to play it by ear and see what you can manage - I would recommend someone with little prior experience starting off with 10 reps, and 3 sets and see how you get on from there. The upside is that it folds down very flat and can be stored easily behind a door or in a cupboard/under the bed.Recommended

My girlfriend liked productWould recommend to buy

Goog little foldable exerciser. You can certainly feel the impact on your abs immediately after use. Does not take up any space. Used n conjuction with other eexercisers appears to be slowly helping to tighten up those loose fatty muscles in the tum area. Build quality is ok. Have had no problems with it, and use it several times a week, for a few minutes at a time.

Very impressed so far. Put it together quite easily, did put handles on wrong way first then looked at picture and realised. Only managed 2 1/2 minutes this evening on easy setting as it is hard but I am determined to use this every day (well after next week as I am on holiday on Saturday for a week) as it seems a good piece of exercise equipment, hopefully I will get good use out of it and it will be beneficial to me over time. It is not going to be exercise equipment I buy then sell a few months later, I am determined to use it!! I am 50 so was a bit worried about using it but after receiving an answer from someone who said their mum was 55 and used it ok, I thought why not!! I like the idea of it not taking too much of my time, I have a dog who I walk twice a day too so any exercise is better then none.

Most of the item already assembled. 5mins to set up. If ure more than 100kg, perhaps would be too light for u. Iam 96kg and i feel its straining. But very good item. Was skeptical but i am not very convinced if u are looking to work on belly fat. This is great stuff. Within 1day u feel the inmpact( pains) but loosing belly fat may take weeks if not months, with a combination of other work outs and diet of course. Good luck

Firstly the build is not easy on your own especially as two of the bolts did not reach through to the holes on the underside of handle bars...I have ordered longer bolts for just a few pence, so no big deal.....but the instructions are awful, the pictures are tiny and the text does not make sense. I built it looking at photo on Amazon. Having said that ...it works great and your stomach and arm muscles certainly know you’ve used it next day! Much better than doing sit ups.

It's been 2 months since I have been using this machine but I am quite disappointed that even after 2 months the pulleys keep on peeling off. As you can see the white flakes on the mat in the picture which peels off from the pulleys every time I use the machine, thus leaving the place messy and I fear that sometime soon these pulleys might completely go hence leaving the machine useless.
